Harlequin has really been a pioneer in the digital market. They announced their intention to offer all titles in e-format back in September 2007 and since then they’ve been working to release backlist titles in digital format also. Below is the list of books that was made available last week.

I think it’s wonderful that Harlequin is so supportive of the digital market. Not only are eBooks much more environmentally friendly, they’re also much more convenient.
Tell me, what are some titles you’d like to see reissued in digital format? Amy Wilkins, Harlequin’s digital prodcution coordinator would love to hear suggestions!
I would love it if they’d release more of the HH backlist in eBook format. And no, I’m not just saying that because I’m a massive HH ho. For one thing, despite the occasional jackass hero, historicals tend to hold up better over time…at least for me.
There are some major authors in the HH backlist – Elizabeth Lowell, Nicole Jordan, Kathleen Eagle, and Patricia Potter come to mind. I’d love to get my hands on those stories, and I know I can’t be the only reader. I think they’d sell pretty darn well if they were reissued electronically.
But what do I know?
I think that’s fantastic – well done Harlequin!
The one book I would love to see in eBook format is Lucy Monroe’s Blackmailed Into Marriage. It’s the only book I’ve found to data that addresses an issue very dear to my heart 🙂
I want to see Elizabeth Lowell’s stuff in ebook!
Some of my very first romance reads were EL’s and I want to track down her backlist.
I’d love to see the Georgette Heyer books, especially Venetia.
Go Harlequin!!! I hope they are going to release more! I’ve been looking for one particular book by Sharon Sala with no success… so go Harlequin!
This is so cool! I’m really happy to see it.
